What We Do

  At JKelly college consultants we help students and families throughout the entire college process in order to find the right match between student and college.  Jan Kelly, principal, brings more than 30 years of experience in the fields of admission, financial aid and most recently as Director of College Counseling at a prestigious independent day school.  Each student has different talents, aspirations and dreams.  At JKelly College Consultants we work with each student on an individual basis to meet their needs. 

Services

JKelly College Consultants offers three levels of services for high school students as well as a customized plan for transfer students assisting in the college process.  At JKelly College Consultants we work with the student and family to aid in managing the process. Independent college consultants do not get students into college; students are admitted to those schools appropriate based on their grades, standardized test scores and accomplishments.  We can however help with the burden of managing many different deadlines and making certain that each student we work with is presenting themselves in the most positive way. 

"The search for the perfect college, and subsequent application process can be incredibly overwhelming for both the parent and the student.  Jan Kelly's expertise in college counseling proved invaluable.  While my daughter's school had qualified college counselors on hand, it was Jan's insight, knowledge and support that facilitated the process.  Jan grew to know my daughter as an individual, and it was that personalized service that made all the difference.  She provided my daughter with interesting suggestions for schools she may never have looked at, assisted her in identifying a range of schools to apply to and supported her through the application process by reviewing and providing thoughtful feedback about her college essay."
